[comp.ai.neural-nets] Why memory is N/ln N ?

ambati@acf5.nyu.edu (FJLevM{n[]Balamurali Ambati) (03/29/91)

Although the information storage capacity of a discrete Hopfield neural 
network is 2^N, the "memory" capacity is O(N/ln N)?  Is there any biological
or physical explanation, evidence, correlate, etc. for why the memory 
increases sub-linearly with neuronal network complexity?
